Chapter 136: Loser's Counterattack
Confident Hu Gao was taken advantage of by the three Condensation Realm warriors in one go, using their Totem skills and Yuan Decisiveness' perfect coordination to completely overwhelm him.
After being hit by three consecutive combos from Kung Fu, I didn't even have time to appreciate how beautiful Linger's big move was before she slapped me right in the face.
Hu Gao couldn't believe that he would actually be blown away by a beautiful woman wielding a whip, something that only appeared in some intense action movies. The feeling was just too... overwhelming!
"Lunar Strike!"
Li Yao didn't care about Hu Gao's feelings, her set of Yuan Decisions was a combination skill in itself. After being whipped by the New Moon Whip, Hu Gao's entire body emitted tiny sparks that were like magnets, causing Li Yao to instantly dash to his front.
Jū Lì directly knocked Hú Gāo back several steps, and just as he was stumbling backward, Lí Wǎn launched another "Moon Whirlpool", creating a series of wavy moonlight patterns around her. These patterns touched Hú Gāo's body and actually lifted him off the ground, pulling him right in front of Lí Wǎn!
The audience below suddenly erupted in a deafening roar, Li Wu's combination technique was something they had already witnessed in the semifinals, an absolutely stunning and powerful move that combined both power and flash, this time Hu Gao was definitely done for!
"Lunar Strike!"
Li's skill can be released again in a short time after her new moon whip hits the enemy, and Hu Gao was hit by this fierce blow and flew out directly, almost falling off the martial arts stage.
"Don't give him the chance to summon Totem!" Hu Fang was not at ease, his lion dog Totem suddenly emitted a red glow from its body, and gradually disappeared into thin air. The next moment, a giant tooth appeared on Hu Gao's head!
"Merciless Blade!" This is Hu Fang's second skill after awakening, and he has not yet cultivated the ability to practice Yuan Jue since he has not reached the late stage of Condensing Shadows.
Hu Gao felt the power that had been binding him disappear and instinctively raised his right hand to block.
"Zhilak!!"
The lion dog's giant teeth drew a beautiful red arc in the air, followed by a sound like chopping meat, and then saw Hu Gao's arm from top to bottom, cut out a huge mouthful of flesh, blood dripping, looking extremely terrifying!
What the heck!
Hu Gao endured the intense pain and spat out a tooth mixed with fresh blood from his mouth, still blaming Bo for being the original sinner, Titanic iceberg!
"This is all your fault!" Hu Gao's eyes turned red, and the move that Li Wu had just used was definitely a deadly move that the referee had warned them about earlier. If his body hadn't been tempered by Xiao Wu's training, he might have already lost his life.
At this time, he would no longer have any mercy in his heart. On the real battlefield, showing mercy to the enemy is equivalent to giving up one's own life!
Just at this moment, Zhong Qing suddenly put his hands on the ground and ran towards Hu Gao like a giant bear, "Thunderbolt Roll!" This move was not some kind of ultimate technique, but rather a fierce technique that Zhong Qing had created using the advantages of his own body to control his enemies.
Hu Gao didn't dare to be careless again, if he was hit by another control skill, he feared that he would really have to end his life here. He quickly drew out the Wuying Sword from his waist and launched his strongest attack at Zhong Lian who was rolling towards him - Liyuan Flowing Star! At the same time, with a wave of his left hand, a low-level Fire Dragon Technique suddenly appeared under Hu Fang's feet.
Zhong Qing didn't expect Hu Gao's counterattack to be so sharp, his head directly collided with Hu Gao's sword energy, if it wasn't for him having a defensive-type Yuan Decree on himself, he might have been chopped into flying blood and flesh like a watermelon.
Hú Gāo took a deep breath, sprang up and stepped on Zhōng Qíng's back, directly bending his spine. At the same time, he borrowed force to strike upwards, taking advantage of Hú Fāng's evasion from his Fire Dragon Technique. A ruthless North Dipper Divine Fist suddenly struck out!
Hú Fāng had exhausted all his Tóu Tuō skills, and the remaining Yuán Lì in his Qì Hǎi was almost depleted. He needed to recover a sufficient amount of Yuán Lì to launch the second wave of attacks. Seeing Hú Gāo approaching, he could only rely on his agile movements to retreat and dodge the attacks.
Hu Gao, who was already furious, knew that he couldn't give Hu Fang any chance to catch his breath at this time. After all, this guy had the most control skills in his grasp. If he let him recover, it would be the most unfavorable for himself.
Even if Li Rou is now in a place not far from his side, Hu Gao believes that only after condensing the shadow later, she cannot launch another wave of attack on herself after launching such a fierce set of yuanjue just now.
It was unexpected that Hu Fang's skills in body techniques were not much different from those of Hu Gao, who had studied various body techniques in the library. Every time Hu Gao's left fist and right sword were about to hit his body, he could always dodge them.
"Guardian Deity, we, the Hu family's bloodline, are most skilled in body technique and usually take on tasks such as scouting out enemy situations and assassinations." Hu Fang saw that Hu Gao was somewhat irritated and shouted loudly, feeling that he could surpass the successor in terms of body technique and there was nothing to be proud of.
It turned out to be someone from the Hu family!
Hu Gao calmed down, earlier he was indeed somewhat mentally unbalanced by Li Wuyi's combo, even in the Dragon Tiger Mountain Range, he had never felt such a strong sense of humiliation, after all, at that time the enemies he faced were far above him in terms of boundary.
Fine! Since the other party has already revealed their identity as a member of the Hu family, he naturally cannot strike again. Is it going to be a fight to the death? I don't believe you, evil wave!
Hú Gāo was also a subject-specific student when he was in school, strong in physics but weak in chemistry. He was even ridiculed by a classmate who said that he was like a baby in a vacuum environment and could only kneel down to see the test tube. As a result of this remark, he persisted for several nights, completing a thick stack of chemistry exercises. The result was that he achieved first place in chemistry in the next mock exam!
Since you think your close combat skills are strong, I'll defeat you with my own!
This is the Tao of my foolishness!
The audience around the stage also gradually increased, everyone's enthusiasm was ignited by the wonderful competition, cheers, screams, whistles, and waves of sound like summer tornadoes swept across the entire arena.
Especially the comparison of Hu Gao and Hu Fang's array of body methods, it was as beautiful as a colorful butterfly fluttering in a cluster of flowers. It even made the audience unable to distinguish which one was the real body and which one was the virtual shadow. In the midst of the confusion of light and shadow, only Hu Gao's fists, radiating red elemental force, flashed with a brilliance like lightning, almost touching Hu Fang several times, but it was just a false alarm.
The key to mastering the fundamental movement is actually using yuan force to control your feet, coordinating with the flow of heaven and earth energy in the surrounding space to achieve rapid movement.
Although Hu Gao was holding back a surge of energy in his heart, this time he truly felt the power of a martial artist's physique and yuan force working together. Although there was still a big gap between him and Hu Fang in terms of boundary and yuan force, he still had no way to deal with Hu Fang.
In fact, when he was in the library at first, there were several original decisions on the body method that had a matching degree of about 80% with him. However, at that time, he was greedy and did not chew thoroughly, and did not delve into cultivation. Now, holding Buddha's feet temporarily, although the epiphany is faster than usual, it cannot take effect in a short period of time to defeat the enemy.
Just as the two were entangled, Li Wu's yuan force gradually recovered. Seeing Hu Gao and Hu Fang in a mess, she was afraid of accidentally hurting Hu Fang, so she walked to Zhong Qing's side and performed a simple healing yuan jue, helping him recover from his injuries.
The injuries from the passionate blow were severe, and Li Wu knew at a glance that he would have difficulty recovering his combat ability. Being able to survive after being hit by a full-force strike from a Tong Ti Jing Wu master meant that Hu Gao had held back, which was also why the referee hadn't stopped the match.
"Sorry, I've dragged you down." Zhong Qing said with a bitter smile, previously he had been complaining about how boring the match was, never expecting that as soon as he went on stage he would become a burden.
Li Yao didn't say a word, her attention still focused on Hu Fang's side. All along, Hu Fang had been the teammate she trusted most, but when facing an opponent like Hu Gao, naturally they couldn't be treated as ordinary opponents. She didn't want the glorious record of their team to be ruined in this competition under her leadership.
Li Wei knew that as a female warrior, she was looked down upon by many people. In the entire history of Totem Continent, neither the Ten Sages nor the Four Gods had a woman's face, but she refused to accept it. In her opinion, women could be just as strong as men!
So in this match, she mustn't lose, even if it's against Hu Gao who has a higher cultivation level and abnormal strength!
From this moment on, it's no longer a game, but a life-and-death struggle!
Hú Gāo also noticed Lí Fǎng's situation and guessed the thoughts of this outwardly alluring but inwardly fierce female warrior.
"Unexpectedly, in this martial arena, apart from the four major families' people, there is such a formidable figure!" Hu Gao couldn't help but feel a few points of admiration for his opponent, unfortunately, this was the final match of the Martial Arts Competition, where either side was only allowed to win and not lose!
He didn't want to drag it out any longer, and directly summoned the Bloodlight Serpent. "Divine Strike!"
"Be careful!" Li Wan shouted loudly as soon as she saw Hu Gao summon the Totem, her first reaction was to warn him. She knew how powerful Hu Gao's Totem was, everyone had seen it during the first stage of the Martial Arts Competition, and now she felt a tightness in her chest, fearing that Hu might be in mortal danger.
When Hu Fang saw the Bloodlight Serpent, he had already reacted. As an assassin, keenly observing every detail of the enemy's movements was a compulsory course. His figure flashed, and the Totem Lion Dog that had been wandering around him suddenly returned to his body. Immediately after, a faint red glow appeared on his body.
Just as Hu Gao thought that Hu Fang would inevitably be affected by the mental impact and wanted to punch him, he suddenly found that the person who was originally standing in front of him had disappeared!
This was not a disappearance caused by some quick movement or illusion, but rather the person had completely and utterly vanished from the martial arts stage!
